GDT: Trade Deadline Day

[Machinae]

If Nylander being lazy leads him to be a good playoff performer, but the others who work harder and aren't able to petform. Thats a bad look on those other guys.

If Nylander was as good as he is on paper, there would be zero reason to trade for a top-6 forward.

 

[TheDoldrums]

Man the 2-3PM window is going to be extra hectic for us with the waiver news only hitting an hour before the deadline. They should've had it at noon for today imo

 

[therealkoho]

Nylander has been our best forward the last 2 playoffs, why trade the only guys who's shown up when it actually matters?

mmmmm no

They would have to find a goalie quick if someone claims Sateri.

To the Rags for Braden Scneider Alexis Lafreniere and a 3rd in 23

Okay? He's in a slump. Also Leafs needed a top 6 forward even when he was playing great.

imagine both goalies are claimed and we're suddenly down to kallgren, hurt campbell, hurt Woll

(i still want mrazek claimed regardless, just saying)

(hutchinson does not exist in my mind)

NYR fans didn't even want to add Schneider in a deal for JT Miller and hes a better player then willy.

Nonsense. A top 6 is just that, 6. They really only have 5 right now.
One more good forward would always be a a smart addition

Why is looking at previous positive outcomes with our players considered “dreaming” when we’ve literally seen it for stretches? All teams and players have peaks and valleys during a season. Some more pronounced than others. If this teams going to sicceeed it’s second line is going to have to perform.

First like has to succeed at something other than playing even against the opposition line.
Another no show in the playoffs and all the points in the regular season won't save them.

No, that's awful.

Only reason to deal him is getting a combo of starting goalie + replacement 2nd line winger with a motor that fits more with Tavares

Kerfoot is better than any of the potential names available except Miller and long shots like Forsberg.

 

[IPS]

mmmmm no

Been better than Marner the last 2 playoffs, that's for certain.

That goes without saying. No teams going to go anywhere without their big guys doing the heavy lifting

 

[therealkoho]

William slow down!

wow how much coaching do either of those guys need, although Carbery and JT could be trying to explain what the defensive responsibilities are his on the backcheck or more likely the forecheck

 

[Hockey 4 Life]

No, that's awful.

Nylander + voit for Gibson + Comtois would be a solid deal. Gibson is a great goalie but his numbers have been sub par for 3 years. I truly believe he would be vezina calibre here though.

If we need to find someone just to complement our 11 million dollar guy, the problem is Tavares and I say that as a fan of JT

If you knew jack squat about hockey and what's a good player, you wouldnt be talking this way.

"His name is Conor Garland, you're going to love him"

Willie explaining which shampoo and conditioner he uses to get that silky flowing hair...

 

[Morgs]

Okay? He's in a slump. Also Leafs needed a top 6 forward even when he was playing great.

Imagine being considered in a slump with 10 points in your last 10 games.

f*** I hate this fan base.

Goalies don’t have that kind of value

Garland?

I like JT too, I honestly think he'd do better with Blackwell and Kerfoot on his wings than with Nylander. I'm not bashing Nylander, I'm questioning the fit.

Same guys will be like... onmg we have no one "clutch", no playoff performers. lol whack.
